Popeye

I've run a test on my PC using Malwarebytes ip test link. Malwarebytes did the job and blocked the link. Working perfectly on the PC. I tried the same link on the Mac and it didn't block the link. This is what I got on the Mac running Malwarebytes Premium: "If You Are Able To Reach This Page It Means That IP Protection Is Disabled On Your Computer" Is there a different test link for a Mac?

On the Malwarebytes for Mac GUI I see "Protection Update: Current". If the software is running by definition updates, where is the file located with the number and date of the definition update?

Thank you alvarnell for the good information.

First time running Malwarebytes (real time) on a Mac and Apple released updates today for macOS Mojave and Safari. Before updating the OS do I need to turn off the real time protection or keep it on? I'll be doing a clone / backup before updating. If I update now will I lose my Trial Malwarebytes? I still have 11 days on it and I have a paid version coming in the mail next week. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201222

Thank you Thomas.

I'm running the Trial Version of Malwarebytes on my Mac and have 12 days left. I also set up my Malwarebytes Account a few weeks ago. I ordered Malwarebytes 1 year license from Newegg and I should recieve the Key Card before the Trial runs out. My question is: Do I register the keycard number in my Account first or do I put it on the Malwarebytes GUI first? Or does it make a difference?

If I'm not mistaken, I don't believe there is "Lifetime Licenses" for Mac Computers. I know there were Lifetime Licenses for PC because I have 4 of them but not for Mac's

Thank you exile360.

I'm running MBAM Version 1.2.6 on my Mac. I want to run the latest version. How do I uninstall Version 1.2.6 from the Mac to upgrade? I see Version 3 has a uninstaller, can't find one for version 1.2.6. What do I need to do, just drag the app to the trash?

Good one.

I looked this product up in the Apple Store. Why are the customer ratings so high with this product?

I don't know if this will happen on the next update but I do remember @treed the Mod and Mac Expert posting here may be in the near future MBAM for Mac will go real time or Automatic Scan.

MBAM on a Mac is totally different than MBAM on Windows. Like they say a "Mac is in a totally different world". All Mac users have is launch MBAM (that will update MBAM), then run a scan. That's it. No Auto Scanning, No Real Time. ( But I hear they may be working on real time ) Update takes a second, if that and a scan takes me about 30 seconds.

Hello MizzLily, Since you posted this in the Mac Forum, MBAM does not have a Pro Version for Mac at this time. Every time you enable (launch) MBAM it automatically updates.

I just updated to Version 1.2.6.730. No problems here with the scan. About a 2 second pause on OSX. VSearch. Same as previous version which is normal.

That sounds good.

Yep, I knew something has happened. I'm back to 2 seconds instead of 15 as posted above. Version 1.2.5, Sig File 139

That's what I was hoping your answer would be. Than all is normal and working good here, Thanks Thomas.

Thomas I have the same problem here with the hang on Adware.Vsearch. It hangs for about 15 seconds. I had no problem with the previous Version. System snapshot PM to you.

Thank you Thomas.

Just received the release of Version 1.2.5. All is working well. I have noticed when launching MBAM now there isn't an automatic drop-down on the GUI as on the previous Version. I guess the drop-down was for updating MBAM automatically at each launch. Is this normal now or am I missing the drop-down?
